Recipe for vegetable rotti made with whole wheat flour (atta) , vegetables and spices. Recipe with step by step pictures. காய்கறி ரொட்டி

My maid makes these amazing kaikari rotti. Its crispy and loaded with spices. Generally carrots, onions and herbs are used. But to mix things up, one can add spinach too. A little dill also adds a nice flavour to the rotti. Its very filling and very delicious. I love the corners of the rotti that crisp up so well.

Take a big bowl and add in the finely chopped vegetables, atta flour and the rest of the ingredients except water. Make sure to really finely chop the ingredients. Otherwise the dough will break while rolling. Mix well.

Add a few tablespoon of water at a time and mix the flour mixture well until a firm dough is formed. The moisture from the curd and the vegetables will make the dough wet. So add few tablespoons of water at a time. The dough should be really firm. Otherwise, it will become very difficult to roll the dough.

Take a golf ball size of dough and form a smooth ball.

Dust the dough ball generously in flour. Start rolling the dough gently.

Dust the dough round in flour while rolling. This is a slightly sticky dough. So roll gently to avoid the dough from tearing.

Spread the dough to a 4-5 inch circle. Repeat with the remaining dough. Set aside on a big plate. Heat a griddle and sprinkle oil on the griddle. Place the rolled dough on the griddle.

Flip over and cook for a minute more. Apply oil on the roti so it browns well. Cook till its golden and brown spots appear all over the roti on both the sides. Flip over and cook for a minute more.
Note: I like to use a pastry brush to spread oil on the rotti. It helps in evenly spreading the oil.
